What are your practices re Melkstore and Armoury Exchange for your level 30 characters? At the armoury I purchase any 370+ that isn't too heavily distributed into the dump stat which I don't have a solid forever version of. I'll also pick up any curio within a point of the highest blessing and a level 4 perk. With Melk I tend to save my melk bucks for either top tier level 4 blessings or top tier endgame forever weapons. Also curious how people spec out their curios. In particular if they find increased curio chance worthwhile, so far I haven't pulled many curios worth slotting or upgrading through emperor's gifts.

Currently I would buy a max level curio that's plus health or toughness if the perks on it don't suck. No plus exp or coins or curios or grim resist (I avoid grim missions) personally. I'll grab a few greens if they are high statted to try and fish for level IV blessings along with grays from Brunts.

Purely anecdotal but every single gray I have ever bought from Brunt's Armory has upgraded into Tier 3 blessings, every single item from the regular store has upgraded to tier 1-2 blessings. I've only ever seen Tier 4 blessings on the limited time acquisitions from Melk, but I've never tried the random weapon purchases from there. e: Not a big enough sample size to mean anything but I just did some upgrades of grays to blues from various sources: Brunt's Armory - 2 Tier 3 blessings, 1 Tier 2 Brunt's regular shop - 2 Tier 2 blessings Melk Mystery Gift - 1 tier 2, 1 tier 3, 1 tier 4 deep dish peat moss fucked around with this message at 05:46 on Mar 28, 2023 |

I "think" most of my T4 blessings have come from upgrading all the way to orange, never at blue, usually I keep going if a good modifier weapon rolls a bad blessing because that can always be rolled over later and there is still a chance to hit something good. I know for sure that's how I got power cycler on power swords and T4 headtaker on heavy swords. Though I think I start with grey/greens I got from Brunt's shop and have been avoiding his blues unless the modifiers are crazy. I know my inventory is filled with blues upgraded from greys from both stores and greens that hit awful T2-3 blessings over and over.

There is a mod which tells you if a blessing is one you don't have at all regardless of the tier you're looking to rip, or if you have it but at a higher tier than the one you're looking to rip. I am ignoring the latter for now unless its on a weapon that is garbage then I rip it for the completionism aspect.

Out of all of the mods, healthbars feels the most like cheating for letting you know exactly when you can let go of your flamer and let the burn finish them or when to bring that flamer out because you see 20 healthbars of ragers inside that poxwalker crowd, but damnit, it's hard to stop using, especially when I can't ever trust random teammates to use their pings to mark enemies, it's also very useful for just learning how much damage you actually do in a real combat scenario without spending hours in the meatgrinder for every weapon you swap between. On another mod note, as a Psyker main I've been waiting for this since release. https://www.nexusmods.com/warhammer40kdarktide/mods/104

Any other factors to take into account other than prioritizing weapons based on desire or being class-specific? greys from armory and brunts RNG greys seem to be the way to go for "best weapon" - basically you consecrate twice and if the Blessing and Perk are both FINE you keep going, knowing that you can refine the next perk and replace the next blessing. You can stop at the blue phase if its a bad perk + bad blessing. Anecdotally i've seen a lot of good blessings when consecrating to orange, however right now I am getting most of my earned blessings through emperor's gift + melks.

If the blue perks and blessings are dogshit do you keep going to try and get a blessing you can take off at orange, or just sell the garbage weapon then and there?

Personally if you got a godroll modifier weapon, like 80/80/80/80/dump stat lowest and it rolls 1 bad perk 1 bad blessing, keep going to orange to see if you hit one of the two-ish good blessings, I don't think perks are so massive that having 1 of them be kinda poo poo ruins it, even if you have to choose between sprint efficiency and infected damage or something. Worst case scenario, you used 2 damnation runs of plasteel and are safe in the knowledge you can trash it.

Unfortunately they aren't god rolls just merely good to very good. Hmmm. I might see what perks I want to try to go for, otherwise I'll sell them if there isn't anything I'm hunting for. Maybe I should play with more goons to make sure I have more reliable teammates in damnation.

Some weapons are fine with one bad or just ok blessing. Like, on one hand you have heavy sword that gets +150% power with it's best blessings and then you have lasguns which can get like, 15% power on the first shot only.

A friend pointed out that the only reason to sell em is if you need the dockets know or really want to declutter your inventory, otherwise there may come a time where some of em are worth spending the plasteel on. I'll probably strike a balance and sell off anything with a 1-2 level perk/blessing and sub-370 rating.

The Deimos sword 2nd heavy attack is very, very good. (do light > heavy) This is a headshot on a mutant with 4 warp charges and 90% peril with warp unleashed on a 79% damage deimos sword.  Here is the same thing but with +25% vs maniacs on the sword.  And here is with all the above but 80% peril. With 6 warp charges and no warp unleashed but with 25% vs maniac you'll do around 3500, not enough to 1 shot it's 4000 HP but you can slap it in the back a couple times after. And for ragers with 4 warp charges and 40% or higher peril and 25% vs maniacs you'll 1 shot them with a head stab and 6 warp charges with no warp unleashed will leave them close enough to death a light will finish them anywhere. The special action light attack won't do as much damage and the the special heavy is a lot harder to headshot with but will 1 shot on a headshot and a bodyshot will almost 1 shot, but leaves you open and vulnerable for much longer.

Damnation High Intensity Specialist Gauntlet is so absurd its great. This one was heart breaking because it was The Hourglass and we died in the long tunnel to the extraction because we hit a gauntlet and got pincered by flamers, dogs, 5 poxbombers, etc in the choke. I kinda think one of our 2 ogryns should have just charged through and tried to get to the elevator but they stood and fought like good bois. I'd say our biggest issue this game is that our priest had shotgun I think ??? Or something other than a flamer anyways which could have helped greatly at a lot of points. Ogryns had the new heavy stubber and ripper gun and they were very useful.

My damnation runs if they wipe either wipe at the very start or in the final hallways right before the (easier then the rest) finale event, or I end up getting downed and find out I was the only one who knew how to deal with a single crusher or bulwark.

So can someone give me a rundown on what the current stance is re:how sanctioned the current mods that exist are? I know a lot of people are using them so I can't imagine there's much risk, if any, but I couldn't tell if it's just being overlooked or if it's a Use At Your Own Risk kind of thing.

At the moment it sounds like they're more in the 'we reserve the right to strike a mod down later' territory so all mods should be safe (for now). Though there's a blanket disclaimer that mods have the same level of access to the game as the player. I could see something coming up over Reroll Until Rarity, since that seems to be the most counter to the developers current intent for how perks are supposed to work, but then it's basically just an autoclicker so I'm not sure how much they can do about it.

Though there's a blanket disclaimer that mods have the same level of access to the game as the player. I'm sure it's fine. I bet they'll implement a perk choosing ui at some point because the original system was going to have increasing reroll costs. Switching to decreasing costs sounds like it was a later decision so they didn't change the ui yet.

Best perks are Flak and probably Infested. God-tier horde clear, comparable to a flamer if your swings aren’t being stopped by beefy elites. Ranged: The new Heavy Stubber with Charmed Reload and probably Blaze Away. A 5% Crit perk is mandatory with Charmed Reload, other good options to pair with it are Flak, Elites and Unyielding. Good range and recoil stability, excellent stopping power, zoom when braced and loses very little accuracy when just running around hipfiring. Very versatile, great against the elites and specials that your knife might struggle with

Tried Hi-Intensity Spec Gauntlet on Heresy about 4-5 times tonight but couldn't quite pull it off, did a low-intensity spec gauntlet on Damnation and managed to clear it for the win, first time ever playing/winning on damnation so that felt dope. Definitely lots to learn on how much more damage dished out in damnation changes what decisions you can make and how hard you can go into a crowd and make it work. edit: oh and the first 2 runs on heresy tonight I tried the ripper gun which I hadn't used since I got the stubber many moons ago, I think for me it's too short ranged and short on ammo versus the stubber options. Magitek posted:Melee: Bull Butcher mk3 with Slaughterer and Confident Strike. Best perks are Flak and probably Infested.

My Bull Butcher Mk3 has Slaughterer III and Unstoppable Force 3 with 20% damage to unarmoured and 20% to unyielding. Which perk should I refine? My Gorgonum stubber has 25% unyielding and 25% carapace (locked), reckon I should swap for crit chance? Overwhelming Fire III and Charmed Reload III (locked). Hoping to get blaze away on it but I only currently have it on my Krourk and don't want to trash it for the blessing yet. tangy yet delightful fucked around with this message at 07:49 on Mar 30, 2023 |
